Findings, case of 57 y/o man, abdominal pain, weight loss, difficulty voiding

Imaging Findings

Pre-biopsy, non-contrast axial CT through the upper pelvis demonstrates a large soft tissue mass displacing the bowel loops. There is one focal area of lower attenuation, perhaps representing fat.

Pre- and post-contrast sagittal MR images of the pelvis show that the lesion is homogeneously slightly hyperintense to muscle. Pre- and post-contrast coronal images demonstrate hyperintensity on T1. This is likely a bladder or prostate lesion.
